Burn These Bridges Tonight

I watch the colors 
Slip through my hands 
They bend and they bleed 
As I slowly soak them in 

Morphed by your inhibition 
I am stepping out of sync 
I stare through your cataracts 
Deep into the depths of your mind 

Your words are spoken 
But there is nothing I can hear 

You reach out to me 
And draw me in 

Let’s burn these bridges tonight 
And let these embers scatter throughout the sky
